Scary wind

Somebody needs to tell the wind that the UAE is no more a desert. It’s a conglomerate of high-rises. The wind blows like a true desert gale here. I’ve experienced winds that blow rain in sheets, carpet bombing anyone in its way. I’ve not experienced the winds that turn snow into a sleet attack. But, now I’ve experienced the desert wind. And it’s scary as hell. Primarily because there is no accompaniment – rain or snow, or sand even. Just wind that can blow you into oblivion. The wind has been howling for three days now. And it’s scary.
